Discover API

Personalized discovery.
Not just past purchases on repeat.

The Prodx Discover API generates personalized product discovery groups for individual shoppers. Based on their purchase history and preferences, it surfaces themed groups: “Less Fat” options they haven’t tried, organic alternatives to their usual picks, brands they lean toward, and flavor profiles they gravitate to. Every group is unique to the shopper.

Why Personalization Often Stops at Reorder

Showing shoppers only what they already buy is not discovery. It is repetition.

Reorder Masquerading as Personalization

Most 'personalized' modules simply repeat past purchases.

No Attribute Depth

Retailers cannot suggest new products without rich product understanding.

Missed Incremental Revenue

Shoppers never see the products they would probably love next.

How Prodx Personalizes Discovery

Prodx creates named discovery groups tailored to each shopper, such as organic alternatives, less-fat options, favored brands, or flavor-led opportunities.
  • Pass a customer ID to analyze purchase history against enriched product attributes.
  • Return named groups personalized to diet themes, brands, flavors, and ingredient preferences.
  • Surface products the shopper has not tried, rather than only repeating prior purchases.
  • Power personalized homepages, landing pages, and targeted promotions.
  • Create a more expansive discovery experience without losing relevance.
